what next….

All my finished things soaking in Eucalan at this minute –
I feel so productive! 5 garments in 5 weeks (and that pattern!)! or, 5 lbs of
yarn in 5 weeks! I need to keep this momentum! Not that I actually keep track,
but the other day, just out of curiosity, I counted the number of ‘good’ cones
I have (by good, I mean enough of one colour/dyelot for one garment in yarn I want to use, in colours I like) and I have enough yarn to keep
up this pace for the next 2 years! Wow! Yikes! but now what to do next?My current list, just off the top of my head, in no
particular order…1. the good wife cardi ( from last spring, blogposts April 2014) there may be a
new pattern here…2. another two-colour ‘Omega’ – the last one turned
charcoal and paperbagtan fuzzballs – lesson learned: do not use two colours of
soft cotton in same garment…3. another 1RT Raglan - I’m pretty sure I’m giving this
poppy one to my s-i-l who is same size as me…her birthday shortly…4. lace raglan like the 'comfy' remake, in Bonita mercerized cotton just because…5. maybe some Christmas presents – I haven’t made Nathan
a hoodie since his 8th birthday and he’ll be 11 in February…
